Casting Nets with Paw Paw

Cool, crisp morning, looking for some fun,
I grab my net and bucket and to the shore I run.
There I see my Paw Paw in water to his knees,
throwing out his cast net, he does it with such ease.

My net, much smaller, I hold up to throw,
I grab the rope in hone hand and toss to let it go.
It spins a perfect circle as it lands just off the shore,
casting nets with Paw Paw, we hope for shrimp galore.
